Automobilista 2 Update V1.2.5.1 Released

The tweaks and improvements continue to arrive from Reiza Studios with Automobilista 2 update V1.2.5.1 released and available to download via Steam.

Most of the changes are to the physics of a variety of cars and tyres, including how the wet and intermediate compounds will displace water, and the tread used for various classes including the Super V8, GT3, GT4, GT5, F-V10 Gen 1, Porsche Cup and F-Classic cars.

Along with a range of more specific and detailed adjustments to a few specific vehicles, there’s also been work done for the AI, including calibrating it for a few classes and fixing the fact the wrong throttle map was being used on some occasions.
